One correction:

In other words strong snapshots contain nodes/edges that "exist" only in the
> given time interval. They don't "appear" before and after that.


I don't mean that every time interval must be included in the given
interval. It is enough to overlap with it. Inclusion would be good for very
strong snapshots ;)
